NHS at 70

As the NHS turns 70, here at HCL we want to celebrate all the great things the NHS has brought us, and showcase stories from our frontline heroes. Have a look at our dedicated web page NHS at 70, where over the course of 2018, we’ve been sharing all things great and small that have come and continue to come from our NHS.
